This week, the market’s focus will primarily revolve around the Bank of Japan’s rate decision. Investors are eagerly anticipating any statements from the bank’s governor Kazuo Ueda, especially after observing the impact of the strong Japanese Yen arising from a weakening US Dollar. In addition to this, consumer price index (CPI) and gross domestic product (GDP) data for various regions will also be released, possibly further affecting the market.
As always, traders are advised to exercise caution as we approach these significant market highlights for the week:
Following its October meeting, the Bank of Japan (BOJ) maintained its key short-term interest rate at -0.1% and held 10-year bond yields steady at approximately 0%.
No changes are expected in the BOJ’s upcoming rate statement, scheduled for release on 19 December.
Canada’s CPI rose by 0.1% month-over-month in October 2023, rebounding from a 0.1% decline in September.
Analysts expect a decrease of 0.2% in the CPI figures for November, scheduled for release on 19 December.
The UK’s annual CPI data reflected a decline in the UK’s inflation rate, from 6.7% in August and September 2023 to 4.6% in October 2023.
Analysts expect the UK’s annual CPI to drop further to 4.3% in the next set of updated figures, scheduled for release on 20 December.
The US economy saw an annualised expansion of 5.2% in Q3 2023, surpassing a preliminary estimate of 4.9% and marking the strongest growth since Q4 2021.
